Masley plays his instrument with bowhammers -- metal bows attached to his fingers by rings.</p>
<p>Masley describes his music as &quot;earth-folk&quot;, &quot;a contemporary Afro-Celtic variation of Free World and Country Eastern music. Others have categorized his music as New Age or World music. One musician has described Masley&#39;s bowhammer style of cymbalom playing as generating &quot;a turkish steambath of overtones&quot;.</p>
<p>Cymbaloms are most commonly played with two dulcimer hammers, one held in each hand. While playing with eight bowhammers and two thumb picks, Masley has been known also to use pan pipes attached to a neck bracket, as well as rhythm instruments such as shakers and rattles attached to his legs.</p>
<p>In addition to the bowhammer, Masley has invented several musical instruments or modifications to existing instruments. These tend to be constructed from mass-produced consumer materials, such as rubber bands and suction cups, often coupled to traditional instruments such as drums.</p>

She is a classically trained musician with a strong improvisational background. She plays contemporary and world music in different projects as a percussionist, multi-instrumentalist and composer.</p>
<p>For many years she has been involved in the artistic direction of multidisciplinary performances in Europe and in the US. In 2007 she founded Samavesha, an international non-profit multidisciplinary performing art organization based out of Berkeley.</p>
<p>Audiences worldwide are not only mesmerized by this woman but also captivated by her virtuosity, profound musicality and the passion she brings on the stage.</p>
<p>ABOUT THE HANG:
The Hang is a musical instrument in the idiophone class created by Felix Rohner and Sabina Schärer in Bern, Switzerland.</p>
<p>The instrument is constructed from two half-shells of deep drawn, nitrided steel sheet glued together at the rim leaving the inside hollow and creating a distinct &#39;UFO shape&#39;. The top (&quot;Ding&quot;) side has a center &#39;note&#39; hammered into it and seven or eight &#39;tone fields&#39; hammered around the center. The bottom (&quot;Gu&quot;) is a plain surface that has a rolled hole in the center with a tuned note that can be created when the rim is struck.</p>
<p>The name Hang comes from the Bernese German word for hand.</p>

A professional musician since the age of twelve, he is a visionary artist with a background in non-linear mathematics, sacred systems and cosmology. As a classically trained bassist and sitar player he gained extensive experience in orchestral and world music ensembles, jazz combos, and solo sitar performance.</p>
<p>While studying sitar and North Indian classical music with the legendary Ustad Imrat Khan, Mark began delving deeper into the universal fundamentals of music and their underlying frequency structures which also saw him embark on his quest to develop an instrument that could reproduce his findings. This work culminated in 1999 with Mark being awarded the US patent for his ground breaking new instrument the Bazantar - a five-string acoustic bass fitted with an additional twenty- nine sympathetic strings and four drone strings.</p>
<p>ABOUT THE BAZANTAR:
The Bazantar is a five-string acoustic bass, fitted with an additional twenty-nine sympathetic strings and four drone strings. The instrument possesses a melodic range of over five octaves, while its sympathetic range spans four octaves. This results in an interplay between melodic, sympathetic, and drone strings which weaves an unexpected landscape of resonance that is remarkably rich in texture.</p>

<p>Randy Thom is Director of Sound Design at Skywalker Sound. He has been nominated for 14 Oscars, an Emmy, and a Grammy. He won Academy Awards for The Right Stuff and The Incredibles. Randy has received Career Achievement Awards from the Motion Picture Sound Editors and the Cinema Audio Society. After working in Public Radio Randy began his film career as an assistant to Walter Murch, recording helicopters, guns, and flies for Apocalypse Now, as well as assisting in the film’s 9 month mix, after which Ben Burtt hired him to work on The Empire Strikes Back. He was Production Mixer on Return of the Jedi, Rumblefish, and Never Cry Wolf; and has worked at Skywalker Sound for over 35 years. Randy has written numerous articles on film sound, and has been the leading proponent for the idea that sound design should begin in pre-production. His essay “Designing A Movie For Sound” is used in film curricula at universities around the world.</p>
<p>Immersive sound—Taking Hollywood by storm and rapidly spreading around the world, Dolby’s Atmos and Auro Technologies’ Auro-3D advanced surround sound formats are impressing audiences with fully enveloping, more natural sound environments for cinema and home theaters. And audiences love it! Speakers in the ceilings, all around the room. Music and effects like you’ve never heard them! Not since the advent of 5.1 discrete surround in the early 1990s has there been a more exciting technological breakthrough in film sound production and playback. And it’s just getting started. </p>
<h3>The Creative Opportunities of Immersive Sound: Effects Editing and Mixing</h3>
<p>With the ability to place individual sounds precisely in a theater, and all the attention paid to the “height” channels and ceiling speakers, sound editors and mixers have seemingly unlimited possibilities to move vehicles and gunshots and door slams around the immersive field. The trick is to not be distracting and to remember that it’s all about supporting the action on screen. Leading re-recording mixers and sound designers discuss techniques they’ve employed for effective use of effects in the immersive sound field.</p>

<h3>Technology and Workflow: Audio Production/Production for Immersive Sound</h3>
<p>It was a much simpler time when “workflow” meant all sounds going into one speaker. In 1952, the number of channels increased to 7, with some of them assigned to multiple speaker sound arrays. Now, the path from source recording to re-recording to playback in a theater has grown into a complicated maze of routing, panning and busing possibilities. This panel will focus on the challenges facing both mix stages and re-recording mixers in adapting their workflows to today’s immersive sound formats.</p>

<h3>Formats: The Technologies Behind Dolby Atmos, Auro-3D and DTS MDA</h3>
<p>For the first 60 years of stereo film mixing, changes in format were primarily located in the projection booth. The carving of the movie theater into a three-dimensional sound space for immersive formats has entailed adding speakers in varying locations, with a significant additional cost to existing systems. This panel will feature proponents for the three leading systems, who will explain the philosophy behind their layouts and how they integrate into the workflow of post-production sound. Additional perspective will be given by engineers from Hollywood studios who have retrofitted their mixing stages.</p>

<h3>The Creative Opportunities of Immersive Sound: Music and Dialog</h3>
<p>Sound effects received most of the early attention, but once music editors and re-recording mixers started working in immersive sound formats, they found that sometimes subtle movements in the music and dialog mix could open up the field for better imaging and clarity. Leading re-recording mixers and editors discuss track preparation and techniques they use to create a more realistic and immersive total sound experience.</p>

With incremental expansions over the last 15 years, Galaxy Studios consistently leads sound recording and production technology throughout Europe. By continually pushing the boundaries of audio, Galaxy is now set to become the industry&#39;s most advanced research center for acoustical recording.</p>
<p>Wilfried developed the Auro-3D® Concept back in 2005, his idea crystalizing soon thereafter with the help of a team of highly specialized engineers. It was in 2006 that Wilfried first presented his concept along with the Auro-3D® listening formats to the Audio Engineering Society conventions in both Paris and San Fransisco. His innovative audio playback system was to include the technical solutions necessary to bring Auro-3D® to the market while staying within the existing standards. After over five years of development, Auro-3D® and it&#39;s groundbreaking Auro-Codec are ready to change the way we experience sound.</p>
<p>History shows that the best ideas frequently come from the least expected places. The Van Baelen brothers together with their partner Alfred Schefenacker founded Auro Technologies in 2010 intent on establishing the Next Generation Audio Standard and becoming the leader in State-of-the-Art Sound.</p>

<p>Emmy Award-Winning Composer, Trevor Morris received his 4th Emmy nomination in 2012 for Outstanding Music Composition for a Series (Original Dramatic Score) for Showtime&#39;s THE BORGIAS, making him the most Emmy-Nominated Composer of the last two years. Morris is a prolific composer, scoring for both film and television. Most recently, he scored the music for director Antoine Fuqua’s highly anticipated thriller, OLYMPUS HAS FALLEN, starring Gerard Butler, Morgan Freeman, Angela Bassett and Aaron Eckhart.</p>
<p>Morris has earned multiple Emmy and Gemini Nominations and Awards for his work on Showtime’s THE BORGIAS, THE TUDORS and Starz Entertainment’s THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH. He won two Emmy Awards for Outstanding Original Main Title Theme Music, the first one in 2007 for THE TUDORS, the second one in 2011 for THE BORGIAS. Morris won two Gemini Awards in both 2010 and 2011 for Best Original Music Score for a Program or Series for THE TUDORS. In addition to Morris’ Emmy and Gemini wins, he was also nominated for an Emmy Award for Outstanding Music Composition for a Miniseries, Movie or a Special for THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH, and was nominated for two Gemini Awards for Best Original Music Score for a Dramatic Program, Mini-Series or TV Movie for THE PILLARS OF THE EARTH, and Best Original Music Score for a Program or Series for THE BORGIAS.</p>
<p>In October 2012, 300-plus members from the World Soundtrack Awards nominated Morris as Discovery of the Year for his work on IMMORTALS. The illustrious award recognizes film’s rising composing talent from the previous year in Ghent, Belgium. Oscar-winning composers Gustavo Santaolalla (“Brokeback Mountain”) and Michael Giacchino (“Up”) have received the award in the past. </p>
<p>In June 2012, Morris participated in The International Film Music Festival of Cordoba. At the Festival, guests and fans from all over the world gathered to celebrate music composed for film and television in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. The Festival included several symphony concerts featuring last year&#39;s best scores and classic scores. Only a few days after returning from Spain, Morris was in San Diego for the fan-favorite “Behind the Music with CW3PR” panel at Comic-Con. He also participated on the ASCAP Expo panel “Inside the Composer’s Studio with Trevor Morris.”</p>
<p>Morris is currently composing music for the next season of Showtime’s THE BORGIAS, History Channel’s VIKINGS, and ABC’s BODY OF PROOF. Morris’ music has also been heard in films and TV shows such as Relativity’s action-packed film, IMMORTALS; ABC’s 666 PARK AVENUE; SyFy’s ALPHA’S; NBC’s THE FIRM; Fox Atomic’s THE HILLS HAVE EYES II; NBC’s E-RING; Columbia and Warner Bros pictures’ SOMETHING’S GOTTA GIVE; Anchor Bay’s BEAUTIFUL BOY; NBC’s CHASE; CBS’ MOONLIGHT; CBS’ MIAMI MEDICAL; NBC’s KINGS; FOX’s JUSTICE; and Interactive Games such as EA’s NEED FOR SPEED: CARBON and COMMAND AND CONQUER. </p>
<p>The Canadian composer was born in London, Ontario, a few hours outside Toronto. At 13 years old, Morris was commissioned by his school, St. Mary’s School of the Arts, to score an original composition piece in honor of Pope John Paul’s visit to Canada. He was paid $50 and his music was performed on piano and by a 4-part choir at St. Mary’s Cathedral. Later, Morris attended Fanshawe College’s “Music Industry Arts” program, Canada’s most prestigious school for recording and production. Graduating at the top of his class, he moved to Toronto to work in music production. Morris eventually turned away from production and began to focus full-time on composing music for television commercials.</p>
<p>In 1999, he moved to Los Angeles to score for films and television. Morris has collaborated with some of the best directors in the business, including Jerry Bruckheimer, Neil Jordan, and Tony and Ridley Scott. In November 2011, the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles held an event in honor of Morris’ body of work. </p>
<p>An avid wine connoisseur, Morris is a certified Level 1 Sommelier, and also maintains a production company in Toronto with his business partners. He finished building a state-of-the-art Scoring Studio in Santa Monica that will rival any studio in the country. Morris resides in Los Angeles with his family.</p>

<h3>About Yoav Goren:</h3>
<p>Born in Israel and raised in New York City, Goren was born into a family of artists that includes a sculptor, painter, and filmmaker. Encouraged early to study piano, he was heavily influenced first by classical composers, and then by the Beatles and film composers Ennio Morricone, Jerry Goldsmith and John Barry. He started composing during his studies at NYU, where he graduated with a BA in Film and Television Production. After gigging and touring with several bands in the USA as keyboard player, Goren settled in Los Angeles where he met and worked with the legendary Leonard Cohen on the acclaimed CD The Future (1992) as arranger and co-producer. Also in 1992, Goren teamed up with fellow composer Jeffrey Fayman and founded Immediate Music, which has become one of the preeminent suppliers of original music for motion picture advertising.</p>
<p>From his first trailer score for Universal Pictures &quot;Carlito&#39;s Way&quot; in 1993 to recent high profile campaigns for films such as “After Earth”, “Oblivion”, “Iron Man 3”, “Cloud Atlas”, “Argo”, “The Hobbit”, “The Dark Knight Rises”, “Amazing Spider Man”, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows pt. 2”, Goren and Immediate Music continue to provide cutting edge music to all major motion picture studios through both custom scoring and the acclaimed Immediate Music production library. With over 5,000 trailer-related synch licenses to date, the composing team of Goren and Fayman are arguably the world’s most-often utilized composers in the $3.3 billion motion picture advertising industry.</p>
<p>In 2007, Goren’s work on NBC&#39;s “20th Torino Winter Olympic Games” earned him an Emmy Award for &quot;Outstanding Music Composition in a Sports Program&quot;. In 2008, Goren was the recipient of a composing award from BMI, of which he has been a member for over 20 years. In 2009, Goren became the first person to ever perform a live concert of trailer music compositions, as part of his “Trailer Music Live” performance series. Through his commercial record label Imperativa Records founded in 2006, Goren has trailblazed the public release and distribution of passionately pursued, yet rarely available epic trailer music; he was recently honored with the Vanguard Award by the Hollywood Music &amp; Media Awards, in recognition of Immediate’s success as pioneering producers of trailer music. In 2012, Imperativa released the third chapter in Immediate’s acclaimed “Trailerhead” epic trailer music album series, “Trailerhead: Triumph”. In 2013, Goren celebrates 20 years at the helm of Immediate Music.</p>
<p>As president of Immediate Music, Goren works daily at the company’s studio facilities in Santa Monica, California, with regular forays to concert halls and studios worldwide to produce Immediate Music’s trademark orchestral recording projects.</p>

Told in big themes and bold colors with blistering sound, the film is carved from over 1,200 hours of rarely-seen and never-before seen footage spanning the band’s career. Pearl Jam Twenty is the definitive portrait of Pearl Jam: part concert film, part intimate insider-hang, part testimonial to the power of music and uncompromising artists.</p>

<p>Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) loses a chance to become a boxing champion when robots take over, and he becomes a small-time promoter. When he has difficulty making a living, he reluctantly teams up with his son Max (Dakota Goyo) to build a robot that can contend for the championship.</p>
<p>The stunning visual effects behind the robots can only be brought to life by believable sound. The team responsible for this difficult task include Craig Henighan (sound designer, sound re-recording mixer, supervising sound editor), Skip Longfellow (first assistant sound editor), Warren Hendriks (sound designer), Rob Nokes (sound effects field recordist), and Dan O&#39;Connell (foley artist).</p>

<p>Ari has also worked on other very popular games such as Trine (PS3/PC), Dead Nation (PS3), and Outland (PS3/360). The games have received rave reviews and praise for their soundtracks and sound design.</p>

Having guessed it is lost, he tries to find out who owns it or where it belongs, but is met with mute indifference from everyone else, who barely notice its presence, each unwilling to entertain this uninvited interruption to their day to day lives. For reasons he does not explain, the boy empathises with the creature, and sets out to find a ‘place’ for it.</p>
